St. Kitts and Nevis passport rank

Ordinary naturalisation is discretionary and distinct from Commonwealth registration or citizenship by investment. The posted statute requires a final residence year and separately refers to residence during the preceding fourteen years; its unusual wording is preserved rather than converted into a simple total.

The general income-tax charge ceased to apply to individuals in 1980, but this is not a tax-free-passport rule. Unincorporated business tax and withholding on covered payments to nonresidents require separate consideration.
